Bulb

Bulb are a new renewable energy supplier in the UK. They’ve launched an energy company which aims to be more customer focused than any other supplier. By keeping costs down, they want to make 100% renewable energy something everyone can afford. They’ve developed one, single low cost tariff and invested in the most up to date IT systems to give their members the best levels of service possible.

When you sign up with Bulb you ensure that for every unit of electricity you use, a unit is produced and put on the grid by a pollution-free renewable source, such as Tyn Y Cornel Hydro in North Wales.Bulb keep things simple with one tariff for electricity and gas, and it’s the lowest offered by any 100% renewable energy company in the UK. Come to think of it, it’s as low as many other providers, too.

Swing by the Bulb community forums with members who love to lend a hand whenever they can. Or give us a Bulb a call on 0300 30 30 635. There are no robots or jingles here. Just one of Bulb’s helpful, highly-trained Energy Experts, based in their London office. If for some reason you can’t get through straight away, Bulb will call you back at a time of your choosing.

Once you start using energy, Bulb transfer a payment from your bank into your Bulb account. This puts enough credit in your Bulb account to cover the next month’s energy cost.

Taking monthly debit card payments instead of direct debits allows Bulb to be more efficient and thus pass more savings on to its members. You are in just as much control with a debit card as direct debit and it is just as easy to set up.

For members joining in the Winter, Bulb set the first winter’s payments 20% higher to avoid members accounts going into debt. People tend to use more energy during the winter, and this helps members keep a positive Bulb account balance. Bulb permanently lowers the monthly payments in the first Summer after joining.
